Jennifer Holliday created something so special and so classic with her performance of Effie in the original Broadway production of "Dreamgirls" in the early 80s. Her performance of "I'm Telling You, I'm Not Going" at the Tonys is still a wonder to watch.
Enjoy!
Greg Hernandez has covered the entertainment industry for the Daily
News since 2001. He's considered a bit odd by some for his obsession
with box office numbers, has been known to camp out near the kitchen
at premieres for first crack at the hors d'oeurves, and Greg's never
seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.

I was lucky enough to hear her sing it live for the very first time. They tried out Dreamgirls in Boston and I was in the entertainment press for opening night. The audience was filled with stars and Jennifer Holliday became a star herself that night! I still remember the power of that performance.
